Lot's of different information on google search for this one, so, once again, I come here:
If I use Homebrew store purchased Orange Blossom Honey in a beer, what is the best procedure/time to add this:
-Late in the boil?
-At flame out?
-During cooling at some point?
-In primary? At High Krausen? Toward the end of primary?
-In secondary?
Considering the source, is it necessary to pasteurize?
I do wish to retain some flavor; it's not just to jack up the ABV and get FG down.
And would plan on also using some honey malt to help the flavor.
Based on research so far, I'm thinking the best way is at High Krausen or near the end of primary and that I would not need to pasteurize.
Can anyone advise based on experience?
Thanks again,
MrBIP
